Fairy Fae

My 2nd card of the day!

Having images colored ahead of time really makes a difference in getting cards created quicker :)

This is also card #2 using the Basic Grey Scarlet's Letter 6x6 pad. I'm trying to see how many cards I can make from what's left of it! The image is Fairy Fae from Tiddly Inks. I've had her printed out for so long. Happy to finally use her!

I used last Saturday's sketch from Utah Divas International for my card layout. It was perfect to showcase the image as well as include a few other elements, like the embossing and border dies.

Now I'm off to scrap a layout for a few challenges on a Yahoo group!

Cardstock: Papertrey Ink

This week's challenge is an OPEN one, just remember to include a butterfly, fairy or angel! (Trust me this is an important step - you don't want to wait until you're ready to upload your card and realize you forgot one of the three - wonder why I know this?? LOL!!!) You can upload your creation HERE. 

We also have a guest designer this week!  Amy Young from A Thousand Sheets of Paper! She is a talented crafter as well as the illustrator of Sweet November Stamps! Have you seen her newest releases - adorable fairies with fruit! Please visit the FBW blog to see her creation!

Yes I have MORE news - we have the fabulous CINDY HAFFNER joining our team!! How exciting is that?!! I've been an admirer of her work for a long time and am thrilled to have her as a teammate!

Okay now that we addressed all the important news, I bet you want to see a card!

Here is my creation using Sophie in the Country from The Paper Shelter.

She is my first person that I've colored since the classes and besides going outside the lines a few times, I think she turned out pretty good :)  I printed her on the Xpress Blend It paper and the dp is all from the MME Hazel 6x6 pad. Ribbon from my stash and the butterflies were punched from a Martha Stewart punch. 

I used a card sketch from Utah Divas International.

Have a great day! Thank you for stopping by!
